No costings out yet ahead of NT election

Five days out from the Northern Territory election, it doesn't appear that Territorians will get a proper look at the line-by-line costings of both major parties' promises until a couple of days before they head to the polls.

On Monday the CLP government announced it had sent its figures to treasury, as has Labor.

Labor won't release its costings before Thursday, two days out from the election, and the CLP is still "a day or so" away from getting back the full figures, the chief minster says.

In a vague overview the CLP government said it would have a fiscal balance of $35.78 million by 2019-20, while claiming Labor would have a fiscal balance deficit of $523.51 million.

But Chief Minister Adam Giles acknowledged the government's projection of Labor's costs did not include major promises such as a cultural centre to be built in Alice Springs, and its 50 per cent renewable energy target, to be completed by 2030.

Despite the lack of concrete figures, he said Labor could not be trusted to manage debt, deficit or the economy, and said it didn't support jobs or investment.

"Labor likes to talk a lot about trust, but when it comes to trust, particularly around managing the budget, from our figures today you cannot trust Labor to manage the budget ... you cannot trust Labor when it comes to jobs," Mr Giles told reporters.

"They haven't been able to announce any new investment to come into the NT in the next four years ... that is a significant sign of negligence."

When asked how, in the final days of the campaign, he would try to reassure voters that the CLP brand had not been totally damaged by allegations of dodgy deals and a silver circle, Mr Giles instead called on Labor Leader Michael Gunner to come out and defend his policy costings.

"I know that Labor are not only trying to run a small target strategy in this campaign, they're trying to run a microscopic campaign," Mr Giles said.

When pressed on how he was going to show the CLP brand was refreshed, he said the party needed to be "open and transparent and respond to what people's needs are ... people want jobs."

The government has a plan to create 24,000 jobs across several industries, it says.
